Korea executed to perfection. On ball screens and handoffs were too much for our guards. Plus they shot so well.
I was disappointed we did not dominate inside. Pledge was our only effective big and he was kept in check.
We were always making runs to get back in the game but could not get stops to maintain the momentum.
Shea Ili played OK. The Webster boys were OK but same old erratic shooting could not carry us. Disappointed with Fotu. He actually seemed undersized and missed some shots I think everyone expected he would make. Korea bigs won the game with their defence and the leftie who shot so well with pick and pops whenever they needed a bucket. Their little guy hit that crazy 3 from the corner and we could not respond. Abercrombie's shot at the death was a terrible option.
But we were desperate I suppose.

Credit to Korea; their execution was fantastic; some really pretty basketball on their part (especially to ice the game).

However, very disappointed in the TB's..they seemed very casual leading into the entire game (basically looked like an opportunity for a trip back home for some of the players).

Barring a loss to the Hong Kong (which would be very very unlikely) we should be OK to get into the next round; however, we need to kill this casual attitude. This is part of qualifying for the WC; not some random, no point friendlies.
